Summary

Far away, long ago
Glowing dim as an ember
Things my heart used to know
Things it used to remember
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December

An abandoned series of haiku surrounding the real-life events of December 28, 2011
Title shamelessly stolen from one of my favorite childhood movies, the the 1997 film Anastasia and its song of the same name
